Microsoft Deployment Toolkit 2008 Update 1 is now Available

We are pleased to announce the release of our first update to Microsoft Deployment Toolkit 2008 (MDT 2008). We have added two major features: OEM preload scenarios for Lite Touch Installation and Zero Touch Installation with System Center Configuration Manager 2007 and a new management pack for System Center Operations Manager 2007 SP1. Minor updates include bug fixes and design changes to override driver platforms as well as the ability to inject all drivers into Windows PE.

Get MDT 2008 Update 1 and the new Quick Start Guides from the Download Center. All of the latest documentation can be found within updated and searchable help files. However, if you would like a full collection of the Word documents, download it here.

I noticed that after upgrading to MDT 2008 Update 1, I no longer have the job aids that were once available. I understand that everything is now supposed to be within the help .chm file but we seem to no longer have things like project process & team guidance, templates, etc. that were once located within the BDD or MDT "wheel" in the workbench documentation node. Is this by design or will they be back? Are these gone for good now?
